we need the new impact right angle tools compared to the ratchets which is better to have?
I'm very interested. I'll pin this comment. Hoping others will help make a list of specific brands/models to test. Thanks again!
@@ProjectFarm there is only a few brands, 2 of which were tested on the TTC.
@@ProjectFarm i only know of milwaukee and kobalt.
As someone else said, Milwaukee and Kobalt for sure. It would be a sin not to include those. I’d love to see not only their power, but also how tight of a spot they fit in.
RIDGID makes a right angle tool as well as DeWalt
My wife said “how can you sit there and watch a guy test drills?” I said “because it’s project farm. He’s the only guy I could watch do this” 😁👍
@Hell's favorite Salty Masshole My wife actually understands, she just won't always let me watch if she's in the middle of a show. Lol.
Thanks for watching!
Cuz hes the best
Haha my girlfriend says that too.. how can you watch 2 videos in a route of the same thing.. men that's something some women will never understand. Man I love your videos!. 😅. Before I buy tools i come to ask to Project Farm.
@@kb8978 ….hide the controller… dah
Sir the impact you have had on the trade and DIY community is incredible. I'm going to college for automotive mechanics and the gentleman who watches over the shop and keeps tool inventory can often be caught in his office watching your videos, and I will ask him if he's seen the latest videos haha
Thanks for sharing!
@@ProjectFarm You really are a genuine legend for all of this work. I love and appreciate your work and effort guy. Big time!
I totally agree with you Korbin. I don't purchase anything anymore until I see if Mr. Project Farm has reviewed it or covered it.
Alex, is that you? I thought you were a prosecutor?
Same here, thanks to project farm we've got the right tools for the job, although in some instances it's a matter of using the same batteries, so we use alot of Milwaukee tools at our scrap yard because they usually have the most power.
As an auto worker of 21 years, I once had ambitions of doing tool reviews on my TH-cam channel.
But there is no reality in which I can do better than this man at testing tools... 😲
The creativity and thoroughness is off the charts, as is your commitment to the scientific method. Great work!
Go for it you could be great at it just give it a shot
@@johnrodriguez853 Not when there's Project Farm! 😂 The man is a machine and a legend.
He tests and compares things I don't even need, and I'll still watch them for the content quality (and "to learn stuffs"). 👌❤
@@TheTexican05 I duno.. Torque Test Channel does a pretty amazing job @ what they do too..
This guy tests specs. A guy with your experience can test actual functionality far better. Don’t hesitate to make videos that level of experience you’d probably have good takes on what makes a tool good or bad in actual use. Something people forget with these channels is that tools can be great in tests but be frustrating to use in practice.
Hey. I have the suckiest channel reviewing knives, guns and flashlights. I suck. People watch. But it’s for fun.
Snap-On does have a battery level indicator, it's the small light on the side of the handle that changes from green to red as the battery dies. This is also their discontinued brushed model, the new model does have a brushless motor and 65 ft lb torque output
Thanks for the constructive feedback.
Also only looked like the 1/4 inch, I noticed the 3/8 one I have out does my 1/4 snappy all day
Totally random, but to the guy in the SRQ Airport with a Project Farm shirt on, thank you for letting us cut in the security line. My family of 5 made it on the plane with 1 minute prior to shutting the door.
hey no problem man
It's ok send me 5.000$
You're welcome bro
@@supers0nic77 no , sorry
I love watching anything by Snap On lose miserably.
😂 It pisses me off how much they overcharge for their mediocre power tools. Apparently someone out there doesn’t know any better and is paying that much because they have the Snap-On logo stamped onto some generic, shitty power tools. It seems Snap-On haven’t gotten the memo that the power tool and hand tool markets are completely different.
@@samuel5916 This. I work in this industry. Snap-on hand tools last a lifetime. Snap-on power tools last a couple years, at best. This is with heavy, daily use.
@@danervin2530 Yeah they are two different markets and companies shouldn’t try to do both unless they’re actually gonna put in the work to make something worth buying. Kinda the same problem with Power Tool companies that try to make hand tools. I love my Milwaukee power tools but their hand tools are mostly trash. 🤣
@Doug Deshawn Pretty sure their power tools are made in Asia since they all come out of the same factories. Keeping jobs in America is cool but it’s not a good enough reason to overpay for a shitty product.
@Doug Deshawn assembled is vastly different than manufactured. Wait on that 14.4… First mine was the trigger switch, shortly after was the LED, then the motor clutch, then the motor itself, then one of the two batteries stopped charging. I probably baby’d it for 5 years or so, but each time it was out being warrantied for at least a month. Don’t get me wrong they’re not bad tools. I just don’t think the price tag is justified in that range of their tools. I use Makita now because it’s cheaper, does the same job, and when it inevitably explodes I can buy another down the street on a Sunday at 9pm. On my tiny Makita I actually replaced the anvil before anything actually broke, because it wore out from so much use lol.
No nonsense, clean smooth editing and very thorough testing. Love your videos.
I continue to be amazed by how well your tests are designed. It really shows you understand how to use tools. Thumbs up from Norway!
Thanks!
ditto from Wales@@ProjectFarm
Dude after years of watching your channel, I just want to say thank you. You remain unbiased and your testing is thorough. Ive bought many things based on your recommendations, and they've all stood the test so far. And you do it in a way that's not boring and mind numbing. You sir, are the real deal.
Thanks so much!
Yes he is far better than consumer reports the test are more real world verses lab testing
I love how he chuckles and says “We’re gonna test that”. Cracks me up
Thanks for watching!
@@ProjectFarm Does project farm really write his own replies? WE'RE GONNA TEST THAT!
bricks me up
@@meme5887 ig not
Absolutely love how short and simple this video is, yet provides so much information. Thank you!
Thanks and you are welcome!
When I started working on my truck I got a makita 3/8 impact and a ryobi 3/8 ratchet because of how much I liked ryobi’s line of lawn care tools. It has done fantastically for everything I’ve asked from it, everything from removing battery terminals to using it as a wrench to attaching a bull bar to my truck, It is a really great tool for your average DIY’er with a bit of mechanical knowledge.
Thanks for the feedback.
Test which hand soap removes grease grime best.
I wash my hands real good then use sanitizer. I have noticed that sanitizer is great at easily removing any leftover grime that soap doesn’t take care of.
Great suggestion!
Oh this is a good one!
Dawn is the best mannnn...
Definitely ZEP
I’ve used a Milwaukee for 2 years now and I watched my coworkers buy snap on ratchets and give them back every 6 months for a repair. More expensive doesn’t always mean more better. Glad you finally gave me the numbers!
Thanks for sharing.
You are 100 pct correct.
I've seen snap on sockets Crack, my 600 $ digital torque wrench the end cap stuck out even pliers helped.
I'm going to try Hilti impact wrench to drive d lag screws to build decks.
My Dewalt works just too slow.
I like milwaukee though feel hilti is the better choice..
Just to put this out there I prefer the snap on electric ratchet over anything else. The snap on guy didn’t even tell me that there’s a grease fitting in the head of the ratchet where you select the rotation direction. If that is not greased regularly it will eat itself apart. Greased mine since day 1, had it about a year and have had absolutely zero complaints. I use it almost daily and have dropped it, kicked it, threw it, etc and it’s never skipped a beat. Couldn’t be happier.
@@jeffalan6339 Sockets cracking if misused is not unique to any particular tool company. All snap on hand tools have a lifetime warranty. Walk on the truck and exchange it or if they don't have it on hand they will order it for you. It's that easy no paperwork to fill out or anything like that. I find it problematic people will try to shoehorn the wrong tool into a job instead of stepping up to an appropriate tool. That's not to say that it might not be able to do what you are asking of it just that it's not technically the right thing to do. I personally have never managed to break a snap on socket ever and I've worked on big stuff like Boeing 747's to include taking off some big things that take 2 1/2" nuts.
@@FloorItDuh I have yet to Crack a master mechanic or craftsman. When I worked in a dealership the tech next to me snapped his snap on socket loosing lug nuts I let him use my master mechanic it held up.
I use the two to prevent my tools walking away. As did my snap on lugnut set.
I got the Ryobi for Christmas and I love that thing. I already had other Ryobi tools so I have plenty of batteries for it and it's really performed beyond my expectations. The only drawback at times has been the battery size.
Great feedback. Thank you!
i feel like if they made the straight battery type like milwwaukee than ryobi would be the best yet. i love their brand the battery clockyness hurts just a tad.
@@ChickenJesus338 Each brand serves a purpose. I don't think the powers at be would allow ryobi to overtake milwaukee in a professional setting. After all they're owned by the same parent company. In my opinion ryobi is one of the best brands for the average weekend use DIY home owner. Ryobi has become a lifestyle brand. Their stuff isn't going to win any awards but it's capable and the product lineup with those dang batteries is hard to beat for the price point.
I have a bunch of Ryobi stuff but I'm going to get a Milwaukee exactly because of the clunky battery issue. The whole reason I'm going to need an electric ratchet is probably because I have a nut or bolt that I can get a ratchet on but don't have room to turn much. The big Ryobi battery is going to make it hard to fit into tight places.
I love my Ryobi, it does it's job allways excellent. The rotatable head is perfect and compensates the bulky battery drawback. Also, because Ryobi has promised to NOT change batteryshape ( like some other brands do everyfew years), I'll stick by ut and bought allmost every imaginable tool they have.
Price and practical function is a great benefit; more Tools for your money! (Alltough overhere in Holland, Europe, they cost allmost as much as TopPremium brands. Milwaukee is ridiculous expensive overhere; unobtanium for most people overhere; stupid marketing...
Loved how thorough, technical and informative these tests/video clips were!!! I suspected the results would be such (based on my experience working with some of the brands) but you definitely confirmed..... Increases my confidence in purchasing 'em tools..... Thank You!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Test idea: Different grease and oil absorbant materials see if the more expensive products are actually better than kitty litter
Thank you for the video idea!
The DE (diatomaceous earth) stuff is excellent but way too pricey! And for some stuff, plain old dry sawdust (free!) actually works well enough! 👍🏼😎✌🏼
We've been using peat moss for a few years and I've gotta say it's the best thing we've found. Soaks up everything.
I use the Montmorillonite Clay that most auto parts stores use.
Excellent idea!
As a professional mechanic the body size of the tool is very important, doesn't matter if the head is tiny but the body is huge so you can't squeeze it in anywhere. I prefer a tool with a slim body size or an extended reach neck to allow good access. I have used the ACDelco brushed and brushless version for several years, and I chose it because it has a body size similar to an air ratchet. My only complaints long term have been battery quality (I have had a couple go bad) and the slower RPM compared to other tools.
Agreed, I got a set of extended length ratcheting box wrenches just because.
That's not what she said
Very true. Especially removing dashes and against the firewall. Friends ask me why my matco 1/4 and 3/8 swivel sets are my most used tools . Snap on is being very bad at warranting swivel head gear wrenches so I will be trying matcos out . Hope they aren't a waste of money
@UCBzSB6BuIF7CNkNgjnA6ItA AKA (
johnfran) Is the "Book of truth" some fan fiction you are working on ?They say not to engage with trolls and for good reason.
But the burning question I have for you my bridge dwelling idy bidy buddy "IS what does all that got to do with ratchets?
and wouldn't you have more fun on Alex Jones's channel?
I've used the Milwaukee for the last 5 years purely for the battery quality. I have hands that can palm bowling balls. Access in tight spaces has always been a problem for me regardless of the tool.
If I need a slimmer tool I find a different way to get at the bolt.
After watching this video about 2 months ago, I purchased the Ryobi and it is wonderful. I really enjoy your videos and have learned a lot from them. Keep up the great work.
Thanks, will do! Thanks for sharing.
I love how you edit each video down to just the facts necessary to evaluate each tool. Thank you for evaluating each tool, oil, sharpener, etc in the same consistent approach. It is the reason why I send you money each month via the Patreon thing.
You are welcome! Thanks for your Patreon support!
Amazing how many people have viewed your content seconds after it came out. Congratulations on your success. You earned it
Thank you so much!
I’ve noticed that Ryobi has really been stepping up their tools
Thanks for sharing.
And that’s their smallest battery.. I’d love to see how much of a difference using the larger 4Ahr battery would make! Honestly it’s hard to justify the top three big brands for house use when Ryobi is always on their tails
@@Warr1895 Yea that would be wild
I have the Ryobi at home and use the snap on at work and have found that I actually prefer the Ryobi
I love the Ryobi ecosystem haha only downside is that they have all my money 😂 I’m trying to buy all of the different tools
As a DIY shade tree on a tight budget I bought the Husky based on this video. It's more than enough to work on engine stuff and the compactness helps make it a beast at doing spark plugs. Thanks for the video, Todd!
You are welcome! Thanks for the feedback.
I love these tool comparison videos, I've been a fan from the beginning! And even go back and watch these videos before I buy most of my tools now. Great job project Farm
Thanks so much!
I didn't get the notification for this today and I was super sad! Glad I checked, now I can get my weekly fix in. Incredible work as always! I hope you're well!
I didn’t get a notification either.
For real. I check in time to time in case TH-cam is trippin
Same here!
I’ve noticed TH-cam also unsubscribing me from popular channels I frequent
Ain't he the best. Love this channel!
"We're gonna test that" gotta love it. Don't ever change the Project Farm!
Truly a non-biased scientific approach to testing these brands!
I know we all cheer individually for our own brands but PF just lays out the facts. Gotta respect that. This is honestly the Best "consumer reports" reporting available and Far more informative than the typical "feels good in the hand" type tool review.
Keep up the Great work Sir, we appreciate all the time, money and efforts involved in creating this content 😁👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks and you are welcome!
I'm pretty heavily invested in Ryobi tools and batteries and I LOVE all of them, Ryobi makes great stuff especially for the price. This test has really soured me on brands like Snap On, you just don't always get what you pay for.
I found the Ryobi ratchet at HD the other week for $40 with battery and charger. I wasn't expecting much but it really did well taking off a skid plate for an oil change. For a cheap tool it works great🤙
I got the same deal and totally agree’
Thanks for sharing.
It's been replaced by a longer, slimmer, more powerful model, rated at 55 ft. lbs of torque. The new one is also very expensive, even w/o battery or charger.
@@Anonymous-it5jw yeah its the brushless one. which doesnt matter to me, the weekend garage hacker. cheap brushed works fine for me.
This however is one really ANNOYING thing that Ryobi does, release a new version thats a LOT MORE expensive for little to no gain of function (for me anyway)
Earlier this year I got one in a combo with their battery value pack. Two 4.0Ah batteries, a charger, and the ratchet for 80. They are so good for the price and good discounts occasionally
I love the test rigs and jigs you make for these comparisons. The time, materials and ingenuity to do such complete and exhaustive testing for every aspect of a product type is amazing! Thanks for everything you do for us!
Thank you ! I appreciate that!
I love your reviews. Succinct, clearly spoken, straightforward, all aspects of the tool reviewed in a quick succession.
Thanks!
I have started coming to this channel to watch comparison videos, Project Farm goes into great detail with all the testing and tests things I wouldn't even think of. Great channel!
Thanks!
Surprised at how the Ryobi won most of the tests despite being the second cheapest option. I expected the low performance from Snap-On, honestly. Their price to performance ratio has been out of wack for years
Ryobi and Milwaukee are both TTI
The Ryobi One better beat them all - 18V vs. 12V.
@@justme_gb $90 vs $500
Most guys want to copy their butt buddies and have no idea how good other tools are that aren’t yellow or red.
Ryobi did well but being a mechanic by trade. That Ryobi would be useless in an engine bay. It's way too big.
As a home owner and DYI guy, I buy Ryobi mainly for the price point AND the batteries fit ALL the 18v tools both new and old. I'm done with having multiple battery chargers and high replacement battery costs of other brands out weight keeping the tools. Ryobi products perform so they are a no brainer for me.
Nice comparisons! Thank you for testing the ACDelco, I was curious about that one. Someone else commented on another power ratchet, the Skil brushless power ratchet. Again great videos on your channel!
Thanks so much!
First of all, your channel is AWESOME!!! I'm always watching your videos. And second, I am VERY impressed by Ryobi. Never expected it to do THAT well. WOW!!!
Thanks!
I always find myself rooting for Ryobi when he has them, even though I know they are not a brand aimed at professionals (which is one reason why I use the Ryobi brand). Nice to see one on the podium today.
Ryobi and Milwaukee is own by same company, company specializes in small electrical motors. I use both tools.
Thanks for the feedback.
Haha, same here. Weekend warrior tools FTW.
If I'm buying an item you've reviewed, I will go with your recommendation 100% of the time. To call you a one man Consumer Report would be an insult, because you show and discuss everything you do in such a transparent way and on video. God bless you and please keep up the great work!
On the idea front, please do a comparison of common oils and gun oil, I would really like to see if they are selling snake oil or if they are worth the added price. If you would, please compare them to a top tier synthetic motor oil, 3 in 1 or some other generic household oil, WD40, and whatever else is commonly found. That would be so much appreciated!
truly depends on what you're using them for, some of these dont really perform well in a engine bay
I own both the ryobi and husky, and used both as a full time mechanic. The size and performance of the husky has made it my go to. Im amazed at its battery life typically 2-3 days where as the snap on diehards wont make it through a full day. Also snapon battery warranty is only 1 year and costs $100 for their 14.4 and you have to wait for the snapon guy to come around once a week vs the husky or ryobi both carry a 3 year warranty honored at any home depot.
Thanks for the feedback.
thats why you're a small shop mechanic and not a tech, if not the case prolly only do oil changes, the husky and ryobi is impossible to use in some engine bays because of how bulky they are
Thing that sucks about the husky is you can’t swap the battery. When that goes its useless
@@Vgk36 when that goes. Get a new one covered by the warranty that runs 3x longer than snap-on
i'm also a full time mechanic and bought the new Milwakee 450rpm 3/8 ratchet. It has 0 breakaway torque and no leverage for most jobs i end up using my old air ratchet instead. The only thing i use the Milwaukee for is caliper bolts.
You do such a fantastic unbiased job of testing everything, that i don't buy anything until i watch your videos. My new girlfriend says she needs her brazier tested for elasticity and durability of the titanium wire that will assure her of the required firmness. Thank you so much
The Rioby did an amazing job for the price. *_Very Impressive!_*
Thanks for the feedback.
I bought the Husky in the fall of 2019, at the Homeless Despot. It was $45, back then. Since then, I have beat the ever lovin bejeezus out of this tool. It has plenty of torque for 99% of anything one might need to do around the house. I have used it for projects, lag bolts to hang a TV, caliper bolts on multiple brake jobs, and garage door repair.
It's never stalled, or done anything quirky. Let alone started smoking. SnapOn should market theirs to the "bug out/survivalist" crowd. After building a shelter, it can start a fire for ya! 😂
Bottom line, if this Husky were to crap the bed tomorrow, it would still be a bargain at $60. I'd definitely buy another one. The Ryobi looks like a solid buy, as well.
As always, thanks again Project Farm! You rock.
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
Love the video as always! Just so you know, with snap on power tools the little green/orange/red light on the side is the power indicator
Thanks!
I have been running the ac Delco ratchet that you tested a couple years ago and it's still going strong. It's one of the most used tools I have
Thanks for sharing!
You sir are for the people wish all the politicians had this type of integrity. Doesn’t matter the brand name, only the facts. Amazing work as always !!!!!!
I find myself watching all these power tool comparisons silently rooting for Milwaukee, and they rarely if ever disappoint.
Thanks for sharing!
Don't silently root for Milwaukee, I openly do. Lol
Yeah I think across the entire range of power tools, they overall are the best platform right now. Individual tools might win or lose but the entire line-up has few if any weaknesses.
@@samuel5916 Agreed.
LOL, I hope they win too every time. I have plenty invested into them so it makes me feel good about spending the money. I have 3 electric ratchets from Milwaukee and I love them!!!
Awesome review!!! I was just looking to buy a cordless ratchet, and this couldn’t have been better timed for me. Thank you!
Thanks and you are welcome!
Another great review. I've been pondering the need for an electric rachet and I don't mind spending big money on an item if it proves its worth. I was very impressed with Ryobi and I could buy 5 of them and strategically put them around the house, boat, shop and farm and still have money left for a supper in lieu of one snap-on.
Well done fine sir.
Thanks so much! Thanks for sharing.
Looking at your earliest videos and then now your confidence has blown up and your enjoyment level seems alot higher as well. Happy to see your channel explode so much and the tests you do are invaluable
Thanks so much!
You should do a battle of the oil filters. There are so many choices and prices on oil filters. It would be nice to see if you really get what you pay for or are the cheap ones ok to use.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Mobil 1 Extended Performance
Baldwin Vs. Wix
General good rule is nothing that says China/Mexico on it is the FIRST place to start.
When I still had my old truck I ran nothing but the white K & N extended life oil filters and Royal Purple. They aren't the cheapest but they also aren't the most expensive. I probably spent $50 - $60 per oil change and it lasted for a while. It also purred like a tiger cub when at idle. :)
Love watching these to help to decide what products to get. And helps me hint to the wife what I want for birthday father's day Xmas presents. Keep it up. But I think the other torque test was a better representative for what most people would do with the tool then the log.
Thanks! Thanks for the feedback.
OH MY GOD, you have answered a burning question in had to move away from Ryobi and what to use. I'm happily surprised my Ryobi was so good. Having the batteries , I can get the tool alone on sale.
You give just the facts and I trust your methods.
Thank you!
You are welcome! Glad I could help!
I’m glad you incorporated snap on into this line up! This has been a long running debate for me being a heavy equipment mechanic! I understand they’re expensive so you probably can’t always do snap on in the line up, but any time you can I love to see it!
Thanks!
Snap-on does have a battery life indicator. The LED light in the handle goes from green, to yellow, to red.
Nice to see you around here
I thought the same thing, I have the Snap on and love it.. The battery indicator sucks tho.. It is there tho...
Love your videos man, I literally just made the same comment 😂
Plus snap on makes a brushless version.
And he’s using the old brush ratchet, the new ones are brushless
I'm retired and don't have a shop anymore. I've been debating on which to buy, I'm leaning to the Snapon 1/4" extended. Get it on sale and I don't think anyone can beat it for speed, torque or quality.
Yessss. You the man for doing more tool truck stuff. Thank you for your hard work
You are welcome! Thanks for the suggestion.
Hi. You use imaginative and very well planned ways to test . Great job. Do you have the row data from your experiments available? It will be very nice to play with the data un some of your testings.
Ingersol Rand is going to be having a really awkward staff meeting this week. Snap On will be sending out a sales flyer with plenty of eye Candy to distract.
Every week is like that at IR. In every test they offer the least value for your money.
i thought honestly that IR is superb quality but looks to be quite opposite, at least pneumatic gun was good i used years ago
@@kiiiisu The IR was built for speed not torque, it performed the function it was made for pretty well. Cordless rachets in general are made to run bolts in and out not break them lose or tighten them. i would still never buy it though due to the weird battery/handle design
@@Flip98Q yee ure right probably, didnt think it like that
I find this channel fascinating. Never thought I would
Thanks!
Dude, you are so bad ass with your videos. Way more information than most people need, but it’s perfect for me 😎😎😎. Amazing work
Thanks!
PF, You made one of the best "We'll test that!" videos on the planet. It looks like you have fun every time. You had me when the SNAP-On starting smoking in the free run time test.... and needed some fans to keep it going. EPIC!!! Thanks very much!
Thanks so much!
Finally a comparison a lot of people are going to enjoy. I have that Milwaukee and also the newer high speed version which I like the most as I'd rather give up a little power for speed. I also like the design of the Milwaukee vs Ryobi and IR as the battery gets in the way with those very often.
This really helps. Looking into upgrading my tool with one of these for sure
Thanks! Glad to hear!
I've had a husky for about 3 years now. Still going strong! Probably the most useful tool I've ever bought.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for adding snap on in the mix. Would love to see more of the snap on, mac, matco, added to the tests including the hand tool tests. Many thanks for all the time and effort you invest into each test. KEEP IT UP!!!
Thanks, will do!
Very nice. I really like how you test as many different aspects of the tools as possible. Much more informative than the blurb on the tool's boxes.
Thanks!
I am glad I found this video/review. I am in the market to by an electric ratchet and you helped make my purchase fit my needs the best! Thanks for all you do! Now I just need to save up some $ to be able to buy 1. I have a couple Ryobi tools so I have the battery I believe for the ratchet so I might lean towards that one.
Thanks for sharing.
YOU INCLUDED THE TOTAL ROTATIONS! You really do take viewer's requests! Thank you for the added data!
You are so welcome!
I feel the Ingersoll Rand brand are usually the most expensive tools, but ends up at the bottom of every test against the cheaper ones fairly consistently.
I've noticed the same thing. Hopefully no one at Ingersol Rand puts a hit on this guy for his work!
For air compressors I really like Ingersoll Rand. They used to build the Craftsman compressors back in the 60s. My dad bought one and I still have it in my shed and yes it still works.
@@JohnRodriguesPhotographer i/R quality is not the same anymore. I bought a 60 gallon 5 hp compressor in 2016, and the pump crapped out in 2019, luckily a few months before the 3 year warranty expired. They couldn't fix the pump, so they refunded my money and let me keep the thing. I put a Harbor freight pump on it, and has lasted over 2 years so far.
@@JohnRodriguesPhotographer Their 2 stage compressors are hard to beat. We have one at work that is older than I am and still works everyday.
@@Ron-ds2ob I was thinking Harbor Freight time!
I scored that husky with sockets a few years ago on sale for $49. Im surprised how well it did against the more expensive brands. Its been great to me and still going strong
Same, as a home gamer it has definitely been a handy tool. I actually bought 2 of them.
I have that husky ratchet and it has been a great addition to my toolbox. Its never let me down.
Thanks for sharing.
I always watch your videos when I'm looking at new tools your tests are amazing! Could you do a test on wire toners someday?
Thanks! Thanks for sharing! Thanks for the suggestion.
Surprised Craftsman wasn’t thrown in the mix since it has proved to be phenomenal, especially for the price, although I can’t remember if it was included in the first round. On the other hand, I freaking love Snap-on is compared because then you really get to see whether it’s worth all the money.
Added to my list for the next round. I'm hoping viewers will suggest more brands to test. Thank you
@@ProjectFarm I would love to see how the Makita compares. :-)
Can we also check out the kobalt 24v?
@Project Farm
And did the snap-on please you my dear after Ryobi took it around the corner and kicked the 💩 out of it 🤕
Love how the two least expensive models consistently turned in impressive performances.
Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you now I know witch one to buy, you guys are the one I watch in order to figure out what to buy. Thanks again. God bless you guys and as always be safe 👍
Thanks!
I thank you again for these videos, we all can learn so much from you!!!
You are welcome! Glad to hear!
Thank you for this. I’m such a Ryobi fan it’s nice to see it doing well against some really strong brands
You are welcome!
@@ProjectFarm Ryobi does have a battery level indicator. It’s on the battery on most batteries
Glad to hear the Milwaukee, as usual, acquitted itself well, since I have invested in that platform's batteries.
Thanks for the feedback.
I figured that Milwaukee was gonna make a good showing. Especially when seeing the others and the Milwaukee comes out lookin like a tank by comparison.
It’s the tool that made me join the platform
Great video. This has helped us decide on a new ratchet wrench. Thank you.
Thanks! Glad to hear!
Love how u edit the video to get to the point great job 👏
Thanks!
I have the Milwaukee fuel, and i find that its the perfect thing for brake jobs when an impact won't fit. Disclaimer, PERSONALLY, i think the long reach is the best in all aspects, but i don't have one. i normally break it free with a normal solid ratchet (a few hand taps) and then zing it out with that. Works suprisingly good with rusted crusted bolts nuts ect. Even if they come out hard, the thing normally pulls them out and its FAR better than the struggle of tough bolts with a ratchet. I think you almost need to pick a ratchet based on how you're gonna use it. Milwaukee has the new high speed (hopefully long reach high speeds at some point) which if you're just doing smaller bolts nuts ect and wanna get them out fast, thats the go to. Love the videos and tests always amazing.
I'm all about the 3/8" brushed Milwaukee. The head is way way smaller than the fuel, and is like half the cost. Even that will snap small bolts if you aren't paying attention.
Snap on makes a brushless 3/8 ratchet CTR861K2 which is much improved over the version you tested here
Yeah the snap on ratchet in this video is ancient. Good video, but the new ratchet is way better.
Thanks for the feedback.
Got the Milwaukee ratchet a couple months ago for car work. If you use a larger battery designed for more power, you cant go wrong
EXCELLENT, COMPREHENSIVE, ALL-INCLUSIVE, COMPLETE VIDEO REVIEW! TREMENDOUS JOB! THANK YOU for this!!!
These videos are so fun. Let's do round 3! Kimo, Dewalt, Craftsman, Kobalt, Hart, Mac tools, Shieldpro to name a few. Maybe at the end of the test, compare the first two best value against the winner of round 3?
Keep up the wonderful work you do for all of us. I look forward to Sunday every week! Thank you!
I would like to see how the kobalt would do
DeWalt don’t make a cordless ratchet.
@@mrtroll3851 they do now
@@sinisterx9029 i been wanting him to do more kobalt power tools testing, i think the new kobalt xtr models are going to be beast! lets keep our fingers crossed.
@@sinisterx9029 I have a Kobalt cordless ratchet as well and would love to know if my money was well placed!
This was a fantastic test! I never would have guessed that the least expensive Ratchet's would come out on top and suit my needs best. I really appreciate you for posting your findings.✌
Yeah tbh that Ryobi ain't looking so bad lol
I love how he uses such a minimalist vocabulary. Not one word wasted. Each point is just the facts i want/need to know. No fluff, str8 to the point. Covers 10 brands in 15min ish. Some Tubers take 30 min doing one review with less substantive info. Doesnt give opinions just facts . Im sure he has saved tons of ppl thousands of dollars wasted on junk or subpar tools.
Not surprising each vid gets a 1m+ views per vid
Thanks!
I bought the AC Delco brushed versions about a year ago. The deal I got was a 3/8" & a 1/4" with two batteries. I over torqued the 1/4" a little so it's strength is a little less than new but both are still working fine. I work on my vehicles (and friend's) about every other week at least. For a driveway DIY'er like myself they're perfect. Because I believe the brushless in this video shares the same proprietary battery I may look into adding it to my little tool collection.
Thanks for sharing.
I love this video! Very very thorough, completely unbiased, thank you for the video. I started with the husky now I have the milwaukee. I personally like the milwaukee better but I didn't realize there were so many options out there
Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
Todd, as Veterans Day approaches I just want to say thank you for your service to our great country.....you're certainly providing another great service now to your viewers!! God Bless.
Thanks so much!
Wow, I had no idea my favorite TH-cam tool (amongst other things) reviewer was a veteran. Thank you so much for your service! Marine Corps? Army? Did you serve during the Gulf War?
Never knew I’d find watching tool videos entertaining.
Thanks!
Very awesome and you did another great job with no messin around.I am totally proud of my cheap Ryobi, i will go get one soon.
Thanks for the feedback.
Another great video! I would like to see more Harbor Freight Tools in your test along with Menards brand tools as they seem to be becoming more popular. Thanks for the time you put into these videos!
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
I've been looking for a loud, expensive personal heater and it looks like I've found it in the Snap-On!
Thank you. One of these best videos!!!
Wow, thanks!
I have the husky. I’ve had it for a little over two years now. I was not sure about buying it because the battery can’t be removed and I was worried that it was going to burn out and I would have to replace it but it hasn’t given me a single issue yet. I used it for about a year and a half everyday in a shop. It’s been sitting for about two months with out using it or charging it and the other day I was doing a quick brake job and used it surprisingly the battery was still close to fully charged and still worked without issue. When I was working in the shop I would charge it every three to four day. So the battery is pretty decent. I just wanted to give a little insight into the ownership experience with it. I’ve seen Milwaukees and snap ons going in for repairs frequently and yet to have a single problem with the little cheap husky. At this point if it were to break or give out I would not hesitate to buy another one instead of switching to another brand. I hope this post helps someone who’s not sure about the longevity of this rachet.
Ryobi never ceases to amaze me at the quality you get for the price. On a side note, it also never ceases to amaze me how over-priced Snap-on is for what you get. Great video as usual!
In the field, snap on is the best cordless ratchet
@@FusionBoost2.0 Even though it was just proven that it isn't anywhere near the best.
@@FusionBoost2.0 Uh oh, subjectivist kool-aid drinker is here to tell us something contrary to data
@@FusionBoost2.0 Lol no it's not, the crooks over at snap-on have you brainwashed good. You don't have to simp for them just because you have another 143 weeks of payments on your ratchet.
@@rynelson85 You work in a shop? Probably not
Hey Project Farm, great video as always, but with a few points to mention:
• The Snap-on ratchet does have a battery life indicator: the LED by the Snap-on logo lights green when the battery level is, IIRC, between 50-100%, yellow between 25-49%, and red below 25%.
• For the next time you compare ratchets, include Milwaukee's high speed M12 FUEL ratchet, P/N 2567-22, as well as Snap-on's high-torque "Brute" 3/8 ratchet, P/N CTR762K2.
Thanks again for all your contribution to unbiased product testing, have a great Sunday 😁
Edit: Also include the Snap-on brushless ratchet, P/N CTR861K2
Was just going to say this.
The brute sucks… the new snap on brushless is 75rpm faster, better light and 60lb ft torque.
Snap on also now Carry’s a brushless 3/8 Ratchet. P/N CTR861
@@aaronkennedy6634 Really? It's about damn time.
I just swapped out for the high speed Milwaukee and although the torque is slightly less it is much easier and faster to use. Being able to use it as a regular wrench until you can brake the nuts lose even felt strong and sturdy and then having the extra speed to spin the nut or bolt out the rest of the way was a huge time saver. Same when tightening down and getting nuts fastened quick, then pull out the torque wrench if needed to finish the job. Such a nice tool!
Your videos never disappoint! Thank you todd
You are welcome!
How do you test for everything?! You literally test each thing for all specific tests! How are you not hosting your own tv show?! Network execs, please pay heed to this man. That being said, i think the platforms you're on, are the best to stay unbiased to the products. Love you bro!
Thanks!
